The storm had passed, night had fallen, and they hadn’t hit another town yet. They hadn’t hit the end of the highway either, but they had come across something interesting—an old road. It was likely what remained of an old road that got re-routed, but it lead to the real prize: an old-timey convenience store. Everything was in English, so they relied on Max to interpret. It was abandoned and in the middle of nowhere, but there was generous tree cover that made it as good a place as any to set up camp for the night. It even had an outhouse on-site! Doppio wondered if they could store that in the paper but decided the logistics would be too gross to consider.
He and Hitomi were on scavenging duty inside the old store while Reigen and Max were getting the fire going outside. Doppio jumped slightly when he bumped into something and heard a creak, swinging his lantern around to get a better look to find it was just an old rocking chair. Doppio sighed. ‘Why am I always so jumpy…?’

“…Hitomi, can I ask a question?”
